"越佚山左门庭,弃其家学"--兼论赵执信诗学的诗史意义

清代康熙年间王渔洋主盟诗坛,神韵诗风因皇权的支持席卷天下,独赵执信以《谈龙录》等展开论战,影响深远,这是清初"诗家一大公案"。赵以在野之士,抗衡名公巨卿,虽未根本动摇王渔洋的地位,但其诗论与创作奏出"变徵"的不协调之声,是清诗由初期转入中期的过渡性代表和衔接桥梁、中介,肇开乾隆时期袁枚及近代的龚自珍、黄遵宪等,为清诗嬗变的一翼和主要轨迹,具有诗史意义。

On the Significance of Poetic History in Zhao Zhixin's Poetics

During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, while Wang Yuyang presided over the arena of poetry writing, and, under the patronization of the imperial power, the divinely romantic poetry(Shenyun Shi) swept across the whole empire, only Zhao Zhixin voiced a controversial claim in his Notes on Talking about the Dragon, with a far-reaching significance left behind. And this is one of the "legal cases on the arena of poetry" at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty. Despite of the fact that he was out of office, Zhao still contended with the ministers and other high ranking officials. Though he failed to shake Wang's position, yet his doctrine on poetics and creative writings played a disharmonious note, and thus became a transitional representative, bridge and medium for the poetry of the Qing Dynasty to enter its intermediary stage from its initial stage, and meantime paved the way for the transformation of the Qing Dynasty poetry brought about by Yuan Mei under the reign of Emperor Qianlong and other modern Chinese poets as Gong Zizhen, Hang Zunxian, etc.thus bearing the significance of poetic history.
